SIOS High Availability Solution And Its Benefits

SIOS High Availability Solution And Its Benefits

What SIOS can do for you?

With SIOS, get ready to enjoy high availability cluster protection for 70% less than SQL Enterprise Edition, Oracle Enterprise Edition/ RAC. On top of that, save running costs from not having to migrate to a certain vendors’ cloud platform for extended support.

Rest assured. SIOS is SAP certified for all major Linux and cloud providers, hence you can easily achieve High Availability and Disaster Recovery on VMware without RDM (shared storage). Thereby, allowing snapshot-based backups to succeed.

Best of all, overcome technical limitations of native features from application and database software vendors.

No Configuration Limitations

SIOS is a high availability solution that is suitable for use in any Windows/Linus Application on Physical, Virtual, Public/Virtual Cloud.

Why Sell SIOS HA Solutions

SIOS has been a high availability solutions leader for 20 years, with its strength as a simple add-on to fit any HA environment. Specifically focusing on channel sales, the great margins translate to cost reduction for customers by more than 60% . You will be provided with sales support and given marketing opportunities. Most of all, you can be guaranteed access to a world-class technical support team.

SIOS strives to solve customers’ challenges by providing usable solutions. 

  • Benefits for MSSQL customers

Use SIOS Datakeeper with AlwaysOn FCI on SQL standard edition with no need for Enterprise Edition, thereby saving more than 66% of cost. Maintain support even after migrating customers’ old MSSQL 2008 to cloud. SIOS supports multinode cluster (MS limitation), and provides protection for Master System Databases (Master, MSD). Also, it protects other files and applications other than MSSQL

  • Benefits for Oracle customers

SIOS offers protection for Oracle DB and  75% cost savings with Oracle standard edition. Use SIOS with STD edition and continue to get High Availability even as Oracle ends RAC support for STD edition from v.19c onward. SIOS is less complex than Dataguard and RAC, thereby reducing administrative time and costs. Enjoy the ease and flexibility to  run Oracle DB with High Availability on any cloud provider platform. Protect other files and applications not just Oracle DB.

  • Benefits for SAP customers 

With its easy implementation, application protection wizards, and management via GUI, be sure to save time and cost on your projects. No change from on-premises clustering design and versions used as you migrate to cloud by “life-and-shift”.

As a high availability solution, SIOS promises to offer protection that SAP does not cover. Automatic failure detection and failover orchestration for HANA and Central Services with automatic ERS switchover to opposite node (feature not provided by opensource/HAE). Certified by SAP for any cloud provider and and linux flavor. This includes Oracle Linux with SAP in public cloud providers All SAP customers enjoy commercial-grade replication and tech support.

  • Benefits for VMware environments

Achieve High Availability, Data Recovery on VMware without RDM (shared storage). This allows for snapshot backups that is not supported with VMware HA. Additionally, you get to enjoy cost savings since there is no need for single-point-of-failure SAN or SAN-to-SAN replication for High Availability, Data Recovery. Similarly, this ends the need for complex vSphere replication for DR of applications like SQL, SAP, Oracle etc. With SIOS, you’ll easily achieve full application monitoring and automated failover.  Furthermore, this feature is not provided by VMware HA, only VM and host failures. 

The solution is specifically designed for HA with full stack monitoring (server, VM, application, network, split-brain). Like a hybrid our high availability solution works on-premises with any VM-to-any Cloud.

Oracle Database High Availability In The Cloud

Webinar: Oracle Database High Availability In The Cloud

Oracle DB HA in the Cloud:
Save costs and cut downtime after migrating
your Oracle workloads to the cloud

Moving to the cloud does not have to involve disruptive changes to your architecture and application designs. Nor high costs to keep High Availability redundancy and architectural changes to your HA clusters.

Even when Oracle removed the RAC feature from Standard Edition from 19c onward, and ends support for 12c, you can still achieve high-availability with 3rd party HA solutions like SIOS. Enjoy savings of up to 70% of costs without upgrading to enterprise edition Oracle DB.

In this 1-hour online session, learn how you can achieve the above and more. This includes cost savings when using Oracle and other applications for your organization. All these without compromising your 99.99% uptime requirement in the cloud.

Agenda

  • Benefits of Migrating Oracle DB to the cloud
  • High-Availability Challenges of Moving Oracle in the cloud
  • Why it Matters: Cost benefits compared to using Oracle RAC/Dataguard
  • Oracle and SIOS HA on cloud architectures
  • Q&A

Live Webinar – Thursday, 23rd April, 2020
12pm SGT, 2pm AEST, 11am PHT, 9:30am IST

Used by some of the most demanding enterprises in APAC including – AGL Australia • Perth Stadium • Dept of Transport and Main Roads Australia • Inghams Group Australia • Chris O’brien Hospital • Korea Education bureau • LG Display Korea • Mitsubishi Heavy Industries • NH Bank Korea • Nagaworld Casinos Cambodia • Nomura Research Institute (Shanghai) • Panasonic Asia • Razer Asia-Pacific Pte Ltd • Samsung Korea • Zespri New Zealand

Press Release: SIOS Technical Evangelist to Discuss Protecting Business Critical Applications in Cloud Environments at Cloud Expo

June 4, 2015 by sios2017

SAN MATEO, CA – June 4, 2015 – SIOS Technology Corp. (www.us.sios.com), maker of SAN and #SANLess clustering software products, today announced that SIOS Senior Technical Evangelist and Microsoft Clustering MVP, David Bermingham will present a session about protecting business critical applications in cloud environments at Cloud Expo taking place next week in New York, NY.

Titled, “Protecting mission critical applications in cloud environments,” David’s session is scheduled for Thursday, June 11 at 4:50 pm at the Javits Center, New York, NY. For more information about the Cloud Expo or to register, visit here.

Gartner predicts that the bulk of new IT spending by 2016 will be for cloud platforms and applications and that nearly half of large enterprises will have cloud deployments by the end of 2017. The benefits of the cloud may be clear for applications that can tolerate brief periods of downtime, but for critical applications like SQL Server, Oracle and SAP, companies need a strategy for HA and DR protection. By adding SANLess clustering software as an ingredient to Windows Server Failover Clustering, companies can provide HA and DR protection in a cloud where traditional shared-storage clusters may be impractical or impossible. Attendees at David’s session will learn the truths and myths of HA and DR in cloud deployments that can dramatically reduce data center costs and risks.
